DLNA
If you have chosen a Media Player other than iTunes and/or wish to stream
higher bit-rate files (up to 192 kHz), the Network connection will use the
DLNA protocol. As with AirPlay, simply setup a source button to use the
Network connection. You can stream audio over this connection whether DLNA
or AirPlay, so you only need to enable a single Network connection to have
access to streaming audio from multiple sources.
DLNA is structured around three basic elements: a Media Player, a Renderer and
a File Server. The Media Player is your control interface. It is a program or App
that could reside on a smartphone, tablet or computer and its job is to allow you
to access your music files and control their playback. Examples of popular Media
Players include JRiver, Twonky and Media Monkey. A File Server is where your
audio data files are stored. Your Mac or PC could be the file server or it could
be an outboard storage device such as a NAS (Network Attached Storage) drive.
When called to be played, the data transit the Network from the file server,
through the Ethernet cable into the CP-800, which is a Renderer. It decodes the
file, performs any DSP functions you require and converts the audio from digital
data to an analog waveform. It then sets the playback volume and outputs the
signal to your amplifier(s).
The setup of a system for using DLNA can become more complex than an
iTunes/AirPlay system and because of the nearly endless combinations of
hardware and software that may be involved, it is beyond the scope of this
manual. You will need to supply and configure the software for your chosen
DLNA Media Player and DLNA server(s). If you need assistance, your Classé
dealer should be able to help.
